offends you please don't read!
Sakura sat facing the window, deep in meditation. It hadn't taken
her long in the monestary to realise that her magical powers had
grown. It had been several months since she returned to her former
home, and to her family. Kumiko, her eldest daughter had introdued
her own family, while Nadeshiko.. Nadeshiko had barely said more then
3 words to her. She was surprised to find out that Tomoyo was
acctually older then she had first appeared. Her cousin, Sakura's
namesake, had told her that they had been eperimenting with their own
magic that day and had accidentily turned themselves back to 11 year
olds. It had taken them a while but managed to reverse what they had
done. Silently the door opened. 'You can come in!' Sakura said, with
out opening her eyes or looking back. The figure looked surprised and
slowly walked in. 'What can I do for you?'
'Um...' was all she got. 'I take it you're curious about what I'm
doing!'
'Hai!' the persons voice said, very surprised. Opening her eyes she
turned around and smiled. Before her appear what seemed like a young
boy, no older then 10, standing near the doorway. 'I'm meditating!'
Sakura said. 'What's that?' The boy moved closer. Sakura smiled
slightly. 'The monks told me its a way of reaching enlightenment!'
Sakura replied. The boy smiled slightly as well. He must have sensed
that Sakura was treating every question as the most important one.
'Can you teach me how to do it?' Sakura nodded. 'Hai, but it'll take
a while!' This was true on Sakura's part. The boy nodded and pulled
another cushion opposite Sakura's. Just as he sat down, the door
opened again. 'Miki-chan!' Sakura opened her eyes. Kumiko now stood
in the doorway. 'I'm sorry if she bothered you Sakura-papa!' Kumiko
said. 'She?' Sakura thought 'Interesting!' She smiled at her eldest
daughter. 'It's alright!' Sakura replied, 'She was curious about
mediation and asked if I could teach her!' Miki smiled at her mother
and nodded. Kumiko returned her youngest daughters smile. Before
leaving she whispered, 'Mako-chan's here!' This caused Miki to blush
slightly. 'Why do you dress like that Miki-chan?' Sakura asked. 'Like
a boy?' Sakura nodded. 'Because...' Miki started out, she was very
uncomfortable when people asked her that. 'It's ok if you don't want
to tell me!' Sakura said, seeing her granddaughters discomfort.
'Arigatou!' the young girl whispered. Sighing softly she got into the
same position as her grandpa, closed her eyes and let Sakura tell her
what she had to do. There was another knock at the door, this time
softer. 'Come in!' The door opened, as did Miki's eyes. Standing up
she jogged upto the person who had opened the door. She smiled
brightly.
'Hi Mako-chan!' she said as she hugged her best friend. Sakura
opened her eyes and saw a girl that was slightly shorter then Miki
and had shocking pink hair. The girl looked over to Sakura, there was
a slight blush covering her cheeks. Idily Sakura wondered if Miki had
noticed it. 'Miki-chan?' Miki smiled at her, seemingly content. 'Hai?'
'Um... who's that?' the girl girl asked. 'That's my grandpa Makoto!'
Miki replied. The girls eyes widened. 'Um.. Are you sure Miki-chan?'
the girl whispered. Miki nodded, and smiled slightly. Before she
could say anymore Sakura interupted. 'Miki-chan could you get us
something to drink please?' The young girl nodded and ran out of the
room. Sitting down Makoto looked at Sakura cautiously. 'Are you
really her grandpa?' Makoto asked. 'Hai!' Sakura replied, as Makoto
sat opposite her. Makoto looked closer. 'She doesn't look like you
though!' she blurted out. Sakura laughed softly. 'I suppose she
doesn't, she looks like her grandma though!' Sakura said. Sakura
closed her eyes, picturing Tomoyo as she had been. Smiling, with a
camera in one hand and another battle costume over her other arm.
'She's very pretty!' Makoto said, as Sakura's eyes snapped open. 'You
saw?' The girl nodded. 'How?' Sakura asked, moving closer to Makoto.
The girl shrugged her shoulders, 'I see things like that!' Sakura
looked surprised. Just then the door opened and Miki walked in
holding 3 cans. 'Grandpa?' Miki asked. 'Hai?' The girl handed her a
can. 'Green tea! Is canned ok grandpa?'
'Arigatou!' Sakura smiled at her granddaughter. Miki smiled until
she saw Makoto's face, slightly pale with worry.
'Mako-chan? Are you ok?' Miki asked. 'She knows!' the pink haired
girl whispered. 'That you...' Miki trailed off when her friend
nodded. Miki seemed a little paler then before as she watched Sakura
sip her tea. Makoto gently squeezed Miki's hand, and smiled at her.
'When did you start?' Sakura asked. 'Grandpa?' Miki looked at her.
Sakura smiled at her slightly. Makoto leaned closer and gently rested
her head on Miki's shoulder. 'I think she's asked when we started
dating Miki-chan!'
'We've just started!' Miki replied, blushing brightly. Sakura smiled
before standing up. 'I think I'll leave you alone!' Sakura said,
before making her way to the door, 'We'll pick up where we left off
tomorrow!'
Closing the door, Sakura smiled slightly as Miki blushed even
brighter. Kissing her embarrased girlfriends' cheek Makoto giggled
softly. 'You're really cute when your blushing like that!' Miki
smiled slightly. Gently Miki rubbed Makoto's cheek and kissed her
softly. When the kiss was over Miki rested her head on Makoto's
shoulder. 'You'll have to tell her eventually Miki-chan!' Makoto
whispered. Miki looked up. 'But Mako-chan...' Miki started to argue
when Makoto placed a finger against her lips. 'No buts Miki-chan!'
Miki blushed brighter then ever. A lot of people mistook her for a
boy when they first met her and were shocked when they found out Miki
was a girl. Makoto still remembered seeing Miki on their first day of
school, getting bullied by a group of older students saying that the
pale girl shouldn't dress like that, she couldnt hear why they had
said that. Later that day, she'd saw Miki leaving school, her bag
buldging. After a few days she once again saw the pale girl, dressed
in a boy's uniform her hair cut very short, avoiding everyone. She
slowly gained Miki's trust and friendship soon after she'd asked if
she could have lunch with her. Slowly the pale girl opened up to her
and they became best friends. Slowly she realised that she had deeper
feelings for her new best friend other then friendship. Having just
started dating, they thought it was a lot easier letting people think
they were boyfriend and girlfriend. Miki rubbed her eyes softly,
ridding herself of her tears again. 'I should just dress like a
normal girl!' Miki said, gazing into space. 'I'm just a silly tomboy
Mako-chan!' Miki whispered. 'You aren't silly Miki-chan!' Makoto
whispered, and smiled brightly 'And you're my tomboy!' Miki giggled
softly and smiled. Kissing the pale girl once more, they left to go
to ask Kumiko and Hikaru if they could help then study.
